Method

This method uses the same principles as UEFA does to calculate its association
coefficients:
Every match played (MP) in every UEFA club competition
(Champions League (or Champion Clubs' Cup), Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Europa League
(or UEFA Cup or Inter-Cities Fairs' Cup), but not UEFA Supercup or UEFA Intertoto cup)
is taken into account:
Each club receives 2 points for a win (W) and 1 point for a draw (D)
(no point is yielded for a lost match (L)).
Moreover, reaching the quarter-finals of any cup (knock-out round or group stage of 8 clubs) yields 1 bonus point, as well as
reaching the semi-finals, reaching the final or winning the competition. Note that these bonus points are different from those yielded
by UEFA in their own rankings.
The ranking is then set up according to
the highest number of points (Pts),
then (if needed) to
the best goal difference (gd) between goals for (gf)
and goals against (ga),
and then (if needed) to
the best "goals for" amount.
